Are they ukuleles, or are they books? Think Joseph Cornell goes Hawaiian.

Books and ukes - two great tastes that taste great together.

I just caught it on the Uke blog Ukulelia as well.

I'll never be truly happy until I own at least two of these!

cool stuff, but it's not a uke unless it's made out of koa.

Wow, this is perhaps the coolest thing I've seen in awhile (and I don't even much care for Ukuleles). Thanks for the post!

Brilliant! I have actually mentally noted how much the ukulele seems to show up in the arts... kind of as a multi-purpose metaphor. Also in my mental notes, the accordion. (While it's not art that uses the instrument itself as a canvas, I kind of love this. ... something about the dog.)

Do you like ukeleles? Do you like books? You'll love ukelele books!
